All Changes since v3.0

General Balance (discussion in issue #842)

• Buffed regular sword damage and speed
• Reverted old nerf of master pistol 180% vs vanilla 200% (this catches us up with old changes like helmets being added, shotguns being buffed, and assault rifle having a default of 4 damage instead of 3)

• Buffed accuracy mod (from 10%, to 15%, and now down to 12.5% in v3.1.0.6 Alpha)
• Buffed accuracy for pistols
• Laser sight now works for crossbows and plasma rifles
• Fixed quick scope exploit, scope view now has instant shake
• Stealth pistol base damage buffed to 9 instead of 8, so the chances of it overtaking the regular pistol are a bit more likely
• slightly increased pistol ammo, rates are still lower than vanilla
• Buffed EMP Shield by making levels 1 to 3 slightly stronger (level 4 was already 100% resistance), and all levels make you immune to scrambler grenades

• Adjusted player movement speed according to weapon skill (100% to 160%) and AugMuscle
• Synthetic heart now allows boosting past max level (Speed aug level 4 is 170%, level 5 is 180%)

• Untrained enviro skill passive slightly less punishing for the player now
  • Zero Rando enviro passive was: -37%, -12%, 12%, 37%
  • Zero Rando enviro passive now: -28%, -6%, 14%, 37%
